Taran & Lita discuss the runs of top ninjas, Jessie Graff & Drew Drechel on the third episode of American Ninja Warrior! They also debate cheese vs bread, goats, and Taran tries to avoid the effects of sleep deprivation.

Taran and notorious wild card, Lita recap the two Wildcard episodes of Ninja vs Ninja as they look forward to the final Playoff episodes of the season! They also discuss violence in video games, moms, and whether or not Sodapop is the ultimate solution to the age-old debate.
